- Traffic Accidents The following table shows the cost C of traffic accidents. in cents per vehicle-mile, as a function of vehicular speed s, in miles per hour, for commercial vehicles driving at night on urban streets. Speed s 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 Cost C 1.3 0.4 0.1 0.3 0.9 2.2 5.8 The rate of vehicular involvement in traffic accidents per vehicle-mile can be modeled as a quadratic function of vehicular speed s, and the cost per vehicular involvement is roughly a linear function of s, so we expect that C the product of these two functions can be modeled as a cubic function of s. a. Use regression to find a cubic model for the data. Keep two decimal places for the regression parameters written in scientific notation. b. Calculate C(42) and explain what your answer means in practical terms. c. At what speed is the cost of traffic accidents for commercial vehicles driving at night on urban streets at a minimum? Consider speeds between 20 and 50 miles per hour.arrow_forwardAlligators Refer to Exercise 93. If an alligator weighs 125 pounds, what is its approximate length? Round to the nearest inch. 93. Alligators The length in inches and weight in pounds of 25 alligators is shown in the table. Find the quadratic function that best fits the data. Round a,b, and c to six decimal places.
